Jessica Charlesworth

Jessica Charlesworth is a speculative designer with experience working for both public and private sector organizations to explore the future implications of their field. She explores ways of using design to unravel and provoke rich interactions between people, technology, products and services. Since graduating from the Design Interactions at the Royal College of Art, she has run her own practice conducting speculative design projects, often collaborating with scientists, futurists, designers and academics including think tanks Foresight (UK) and the Institute for the Future (US). With this interdisciplinary approach she explores alternative futures that new technologies and science may hold. Jessica has exhibited at the MAKVienna, the Chicago Cultural Center, the Ace Museum in Los Angeles and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.
